Let’s be honest, Anchor charts aren’t always on the forefront of our minds when we plan our instruction. I realized in the last couple of years, that my students needed SOMETHING to refer back to when I was busy with groups or helping a student, and that is where GOOD anchor charts come in.

Anchor Chart Prep
I guess I also have to admit that my handwriting isn’t the best, but I STILL want to be able to complete the anchor charts WITH my students. I love how these anchor charts allow you to prep in advance but still quickly and efficiently gather around the carpet and introduce a new topic. Not only does this make it quicker, but it also gives the students something to quickly reference while I am with a small group or helping a student.
Weekly Planning
Each week, I determine which social skills I will be discussing with my students and create the base of the anchor charts. This way, I can complete the anchor charts with my students opinions and suggestions. For me, that is the MOST important part of anchor charts, student input.
